Kate Saffin talks to Shelley Mitchell about her first experience of Edinburgh with her solo show ‘Talking with Angels: Budapest 1943’

Shelley Mitchell shares her experiences of bringing a solo show to Edinburgh for the first time.

Her show, ‘Talking with Angels Budapest 1943’ is a true story about four close-knit artists who, notwithstanding the upheaval of war, made detailed notes of their conversations with other worldly entities. Gitta Mallasz, the sole survivor of the group, saved the transcripts they made and in 1976 published them as ‘Dialogues avec l’ange’
